You captured it perfectly!

Thank you so much Ruth. You captured it perfectly. We had a large number of guests and it was important to us that we had photographs of everyone, sharing our special day with us. We particularly wanted photographs of our grandchildren enjoying our special day with us, and you managed to capture them beautifully! Thank you.

Just WOW!

Just WOW! You captured us at our best. Neither of us particularly like having our photographs taken, but you put us at ease and we forgot that you were there! We now have some amazing images, to treasure forever.

Iconic images!

We are so pleased that we chose you to be our photographer, Ruth. The couples photos taken in London are truly iconic images and we can’t wait to get some printed and framed. We love all of the others as wel, and can’t wait to share them with our family and friends.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

It was a beautiful occasion. Childhood sweethearts, reconnected in later life. I could tell that they were meant to be together, definitely soulmates. There was so much love on show that day.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, candid, spontaneous, active, discrete

What about your business are you most proud of?

Establishing it all by myself, when lots of people told me that I would not be able to. I proved them wrong! You have to believe in yourself.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Don't be afraid to have the wedding your way. Do what you want to do.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

A range of carved wooden African animals, which were used as name place holders. The animals were then taken home by the guests

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I like to meet my couples before their wedding day. Where possible, I offer a pre-wedding/engagement shoot, as this is a perfect way to get to know them and to get them comfortable in front of a camera. I like them to see who they will be spending much of their wedding day with, so that they can feel relaxed, trusting that all of the important moments will be captured.

What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?

One of my favourites is the confetti photograph. You get action, colour and emotion all in one!

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

All of the guests making a heart shape around the newly-weds. I then took the photo from a first floor window, so I could clearly see the heart shape.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

I have a selection of umbrellas - clear, white and rainbow - they make it possible to get outside and take some quirky photos. Wellington boots and trainers can usually be hidden quite well, under a wedding dress, but are much easier for walking around in, in wet weather.

Describe how you got into photography.

I have been interested in photography for as long as I can remember. It was my way of telling a story, and recording events as they unfolded. It always fascinated me that each image became more valuable as time went on - recalling occasions that had happened in the past.
